Our Story

What We Do
We equip girls to reach their full potential by delivering the resources, relationships, and learning opportunities they need to thrive.
This is a pivotal moment. Girls today face a range of challenges that can impact their path to academic and career success—including barriers related to access, representation, and opportunity. Girls Inc. remains committed to creating supportive environments that help girls grow into confident, capable leaders.
